Infinity

Always been interested in sensory deprivation. Apparently prison guards in Tasmania placed the really naughty prisoners in cells where they could hear nothing and see nothing and within a few days they would go 'mad'. Also in the book 'Papillon' Papillon says how when he was in solitary confinement he was never so free as he would meet friends for coffee and travel in his imagination vividly. Some people say this book is fake, maybe, but nevertheless sensory deprivation has these kinds of effects. I wonder if it is utilised by the various monks in their solitary long retreats as it seems a sure fire way of getting conscious access to the unconscious without drugs, lucid dreaming without going to sleep! Had a go once in a float tank but one hour was not enough. I always though if I ever get the space I would build myself a sensory deprivation box (no water) any designs out there? Could be useful tool. ∞

I take your point about belonging. So you are also saying that the 'herd minds' subconscious takes over an individuals conscious mind? Not sure I follow... Surely the conscious minds of the herd all agree on an idea and or action and follow it for what ever reason? I don't think enlightenment is an 'idea' in my opinion in fact it is eventually in its final stage the complete loss of all ideas and concepts about anything and the simply abiding in 'what is' - 'reality'. Eventually again in my opinion there is no position or perspective that can be held as all positions and perspectives no matter how contradictory are both true and untrue and duality collapses into a 'singularity' or a oneness or an emptiness which is over flowingly full so to speak. ∞

When one candle lights and warms a room it's easier for others to be lit. Herd mentality is surely driven with unconciousness and fear? It could I suppose apply but any mind subscribing to the herds ways would have no understanding of what he/she were doing surely? Would not they just be mirroring those around them? More conscious minds don't follow the herd they walk there own path as individuals.

Its my understanding that people who fear death seek life and those who fear life seek death. Imo opinion they are both just words just delusions and that in reality there is neither just consciousness.* ∞ *Consciousness is word true which we seemingly have to use. But as you know... "The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnameable is the eternally real." Lao Tzu

Hi Dawg, A few more questions if you have time. 1) Does positive energy attract positive energy and does negative energy attract negative energy? 2) Is negative energy just the absence of positive energy and in reality just an illusion. Is there in reality only just positive energy? 3) Are you just overflowing positive energy and when you share it do you get more? 4) How do you wake someone that is pretending to sleep? And should we bother? 5) Is it true that if you talk sense to fool they will think your foolish and is there any way around this? :-) Sincerely Dawg you have helped me on my path. All my very best, Peter S

Hi all, Here goes. Every LIFE is born POSITIVE with a subconscious, a witness unjudgemental spontaneous self. This self was 100% positive. It loved unconditionally It accepted unconditionally It was active, creative, rational, beautiful, curious, understanding, healthy and many other qualities. And as it accepted unconditionally and rationally everything it came to believe what it was told it was, it became a subject (personality) and and these subjects had conditions (duality) They were either good><bad, Happy><sad, Loving><hating, Clever><stupid, etc... So this 'conscious subject (you)' is limited by its conditions and its these conditions which allow LIFE to flow through this SUBJECT the more flow the more positive qualities of life it posses. The less the less positive qualities of LIFE flow through it. To much conditioning equals no positivity life flow or death. No conditioning equals LIFE. There are many subjects (personalities) all with different conditioning. This 'SUBJECT' can only be what its conditioned to be and believes its conditioning to be true (reality) good><bad, Happy><sad, Loving><hating, Clever><stupid, etc.... However if it consciously realigns itself with its original subconscious self it will be unconditioned and posses all the qualities of its true self which is the subconscious mind (Self realisation). When your conscious chooses which is the positive from opposites it consciously chooses something and your subconscious accepts unconditionally! When you play TaoMasters game you reprogramme your subconscious with what your conscious rational self believes in truth or REALITY and if you get it right (and you will get many right) your subconscious mind accepts those conscious decisions as reality and believes it. So you have a new REALITY subjective personality which has more life energy flow through it and is closer to reality. Then refine it and you get more and again etc.. the more reality you get the more you know about reality so the more you can get...∞ ...until you are your subconscious mind completely, your true self (Self realisation). Now my fantastic friends who wants to play a game? http://thetaobums.com/topic/37372-increase-yang-positivity-exercise-by-taomaster/

I am calling into question Brian's Rationality! I think he is MAD!!!!!!! He does not understand a positive is a positive! http://thetaobums.com/topic/37370-enlightenment-as-i-understand-it/page-2

OK GM, Thats OK. The Party has started now just waiting for the guests to arrive! :-) Come if you want its up to you, you have an invite!

You have no faith+ CT. But thats OK. Its ALL OK!

Thats good GM, so in that case when he agrees with me you will agree with him and Me and TaoMaster! I am so looking forward to this!!

Ok CT. But lets see what Brian says eh! He is going to agree with TaoMaster and me.

No I mean MAD as in completely and utterly insane! Brian its time to DIE!!!!! Don't worry! Its beautiful!

Hey SA, I cannot die!

Everything!

imo, Your logic is very unsound. You think you are clever but your not seeing things clearly. Now this is very positive. :-) Your trying to make me feel bad. :-) Your attempting to suppress me and my logic by calling me 'psychologically imbalanced'. :-) You are attempting to cut of my head to make yourself look taller but now you ego is getting smaller and smaller. :-) You attack me because your afraid and scared. :-) Brother your on the cross! Ha ha What ever you do there is no way out. Your ego will probably say 'I am not afraid' Thats a positive! Its all positive. :-) You are no match for my reason! The king is dead! Long live the king! :-) As I said before CHECKMATE! ​Your followers are waiting for your response Brian? How can you come back from this? They are waiting... SO YOU ACCEPT A POSITIVE IS A POISTIVE? And that TaoMaster is CORRECT! Ha Ha Ha Ha Listen to the song Brian, there are no mistakes ever! Listen to it and wake up! Take a step out of duality in to reality! They are waiting... TaoMaster is correct isn't he? A positive is a positive isn't it? :-) Answer in the box below please... An absence of an answer (a negative) is a positive. You loose! We win! CHECKMATE! ...... in your own time my friend just follow the instructions... http://thetaobums.com/topic/37218-yang-and-yin-and-the-law-of-duality/

OK Positive is positive Negative is positive (just bare with me) :-) When some one says they are say 'Feeling bad' What they are doing is positively+ Affirming+ and Expressing+ there+ Feelings+ There negativity is actually Positivety as they are 'Positive that they are 'negative'. They believe+ it! Its as plain as the nose on our faces!

Brian thanks sincerely that was Thoughtfull... I will just say, not long now and YOU WILL SEE. And when you see all the dominos will begin to fall! And the Party will begin. Sincerely all my best, Peter S I am TOTALLY SANE I HAVE NO DOUBT

In that case try this. There is only POSITIVE because: When your positive you are positive (do you agree?) and When your negative your 'positive' your negative (agree?) Now if you can prove that supra-rational reasoning incorrect we will call it Check! If not sorry Nungali but that is Checkmate! my friend. You win! Anyone else disagree with that MH, SC, Brian? This is fun! Prepare for Life><Death... Look Brian your on the cross! Not long NOW.

Ok just to add a note to the start of this. There is no unconscious mind. TaoMasters word game works because 'You' are consciously sorting out your reality from your illusions consciously one by one. Place words you think are 'REAL' under the real column and the words that you think are false under the 'ILLUSIONS' under the second column. What you will be doing is consciously sorting reality in front of your conscious mind and solving all your duality dilemmas! I am more conscious now and this at my current level of awareness is how this game works. All there is is consciousness. I am that I am All my best Peter S REAL> | < illusion - would you agree? You decide Is love real or hate? Is confidence real or fear? Is....

Hi Nungali I am sure, but I must admit its all been intense but seems to be calming down now. Those written exercises changed my perception and I cannot see it any other way. But there were other things I have been doing which also lead me to here. My mistake has been to think that that game would have the same effect on others as it had on me and it clearly has not? Also my thoughts have run away sometimes. I have just got to get back into silent focussed meditation stopping the chatter and qigong and letting the energy do its thing :-)

Life is consciousness dreaming. You are consciousness dreaming you.

Hi just seen this? I don't remember I may have missed the post as sometimes I am going travelling fast. Sorry if I did?

Boom! :-) :-) :-)

Life is a dream in conciousness. :-) You can be the butterfly or you it's all you! See: http://thetaobums.com/topic/37370-enlightenment-as-i-understand-it/
